aberdyn1832 It is obvious that Hanna and Simon, as a couple, have reached the steady state of true love, a deep true love. But it is a steady state... probably too steady. So when each other, separately, meets the handsome Adam, they re-discover passion.It is a slow movie as we have to discover how the characters are feeling lonely without actually expressing it. Hanna and Simon are a couple but they feel lonely each other. They both meet Adam, on different circumstances, and feel attracted to him. It is true that Adam has everything for him: he is good-looking, he practices some sports, go out, have casual sex... but at the end of the day, he is still lonely. As a proof, his apartment looks like a hospital room.This movie is about joining each other's loneliness to build a true relationship. But how does it happen? That is the interesting part.

little_gerli One of the most breathtaking films I've seen in the last few months definitely! Although I've to admit that the trailer reveals a lot and I would give all the advice who haven't yet seen it yet, don't do it (of course i meant the trailer, not the film :)! It is 100% sure a film worth being watched, trust me even without looking the trailer! It's for all people with an open heart and who need a little prove and inspiration that life doesn't have to be always painted in black and white, but in all kinds of beautiful colors! Hope you enjoy the film as much as I did and you are as moved and excited by every moment as I was! Trust me it's exiting till the end of the film!

lamont-hard The thing I noticed about the film was that the long term couple had a different type of relationship before the lover entered their lives. It was apparent the way she showed very little emotions/support about his illness and his mom's passing. He seemed meek and she aggressive and distant, but I guess it worked for them.Interesting how she became affectionate in the more traditional way with the lover as her role in life changes meanwhile he became more independent from her and started to assert himself in a more aggressive manner. There lives were coming to be the cliché norms from being with the lover, witch seems to be what the were both looking for.She became a nurturer while he found responsibility in the more tradition role of the husband. The ending seems to be an easy answer, but I will not spoil it for you.

showdown This one is a typical movie from Tom Tykwer, but one of his best. Is it constructed? Of course, it is fiction, paired with really good dialogue and performances. I don't know if it will be shown in English, but if you understand the language you should watch it in German. The movie is well crafted like one piece, everything fits perfectly together: the cinematography / the cutting, the music, the plot, the pace and the meaning. It has some scenes with black humour in it, but not too many. And although it deals with fundamental questions of life / death, relationships and sexual orientation, I left the cinema in an uplifted mood. Recommended for people who like Tom-Tykwer- or menage-à-trois-movies (e.g. "Threesome", "Jules and Jim").
